So we just called to try to make reservations for the time between sessions...
Courtney made the first call. She tried to tell them her name but they didn't understand. From my end it just sounded like "Courtney. C-O- Lisa. Lisa." Hahaha. Apparently they could understand Lisa better. Mostly there were just a lot of confused looks, awkward pauses and the person on the other end of the phone saying "HEELLLOOO?"
Courtney started to make the next call but the man couldn't understand her so she shoved the phone in my face. Once I clarified that the price he was giving us was in Tanzanian shillings I had to have him re-explain the room options to me. I had him explain the rooms three or four times and I think we booked a single room with a large bed that can sleep three people but I really have no idea. At one point both the guy I was talking to and I just started both cracking up because neither of us could understand each other. We're bringing a sleeping pad with us just in case we don't get exactly the room we think we booked :]
